Hey all! It's the Trans Rights Readathon! An event that's simply about reading more trans works during the second half of march.


From their site, "The Trans Rights Readathon is an annual call to action to readers and book lovers in support of Trans Day of Visibility (TDOV) on March 31st. This year’s Trans Rights Readathon will take place from Tuesday, March 17 to Tuesday, March 31, 2026."


So, I'm here with things you can read that are trans and I think you should check out for this event. Various pairings (mostly transhet) and various levels of spice (with some stories not being romance at all) -- as always, this list is for adults only.

The Absurd Theatre of Eric Hanada -- Eric is an actor with a witch hunting side gig, hoping to cleanse his fiancée Bianka’s death curse. It’s a long story. All he wants is to live a relaxing life with his loved ones, but the oddly theatrical world he lives in has something else in mind for him...


Length: First chapter is up for free! The rest will be released all at once at a later date.

Your Kisses of Salt -- A picture book for adults, this zine collects together 20 pages of illustrations and single-panel comics about a transmasc halfling/elf Finian and their love interest Gianna, a human woman.


Length: Short & Finished

Runaway to the Stars -- "Runaway to the Stars is a hard science fiction slice-of-life story focused on communication, accommodation, and everyday life in co-species spaces. The main storyline follows Talita, a centaur aerospace engineer and cross-species foster kid."


Length: Ongoing (Webcomic)

Love me, Kill me -- When Jalisa wakes up in Castle Heavenstead, she is already dead. 


Length: Short, Finished & Free!


The Arrangement -- "For a 140 year old vampire, Sidney is no better off than when he was mortal. Seeking distraction, he escapes to the speakeasies of Harlem for dancing, drinking, and the occasional bite. Mostly harmless fun until their antics attract the attention of another vampire named Harry. What does this new fella want with Sidney - a one night stand or something more? After all, relationships are complicated when you’re immortal.


Length: Ongoing (Webcomic)

Pink Sugar -- "Who knew that speedrunning the afterlife could look so good? Pink Sugar is delightfully polyamorous & queer fantasy-romance, where 4 sapphic demons embark on a road trip through the 5 realms of the underworld. Join Blake, Rocko, Artemis, and Satya in the unexpected ways of falling in love and confronting their own pasts along the way."


Length: Ongoing (Webcomic)

Festival Fashion -- Lord Advisor Vierre brings his lady friend Genevieve, and her strange ward Thomas, to his home Island of Eelvaria for the High tide festival and possibly to pick up an order from his absent minded yet brilliant friend. Returning to the beach with his secretive purchase, he ends up with a surprise of his own...


Length: Short! Finished & Free!

The Titan -- Ongoing webcomic that stars a trans guy in a post-apocalyptic-esq world who is not only buff as hell, but has also fully transitioned with bottom surgery and all. His love interest is a tiny, sheltered gal and their dynamic is coming along nicely. Not to be missed if you're into tm/f stuff!


Length: Ongoing (Webcomic)

The Howler's Captive - By Grendle and Eros - In the royal capital city of Katchek, it is an honor to be born with the ability to use magic. However, the gift is only to be used within strict guidelines set by the royal Sorcerer's Court, and learned only under the banner of the capital's prestigious magical academy. The young Wizard Norris' raw talent is undeniable, but his starry-eyed idolatry of fairy tales and great heroes of old has done him no favors in a world that expects more grounded, realistic things from him. As graduation approaches with no prospects in sight, Norris is presented with what feels like divine intervention: the attention of Katchek's resident Sorcerer, the Raven, and the implied opportunity to apprentice beneath him. Maybe. If  he can come up with something exemplary enough to prove his worth by the time spring arrives. Eager to win his lordship's favor, Norris sets out for parts unknown but quickly finds himself in way over his head - caught up in the middle of a centuries-long feud, physically trapped in the ruins of an enchanted castle, and coveted by more than just one ancient, monstrous Sorcerer...each of whom would go to exceptional lengths to keep him...


Length: 51k words! Completed!

Arcade Alex - By Risiko - Arcade Alex is a romance and erotic comic about two gay guys who fall in love. Alex Rossi, the titular character, is a trans man, and Kaz Kovar, the narrator, is a cis man. The story follows their lives in Starlight City, their relationship, and their struggles as they grow into themselves.


Length: Ongoing (Webcomic)

Shot and Chaser - By EK Weaver - SHOT AND CHASER is a story about storms. Esoteric lifemates Tre and Olly set out together and experience a literal whirlwind of a day in the Texas panhandle.


Length: Ongoing (to be completed soon)

Nasty Red Dogs - By Kosmicdream - One night, the moon split into two and all the dogs turned red.. now they wander the streets, hunting for human survivors. Kamila wakes one night to find an unexpected visitor in her home that will change her life forever...
